Jelly Roll’s 18-year-old daughter has had it with strangers turning her father’s divorce into a cheating story.
Bailee Ann DeFord pushed back during a TikTok Live on Sunday, according to TMZ, after viewers kept raising speculation about the end of Jelly Roll’s marriage to Bunnie XO. The singer and Bunnie finalized their divorce earlier this month after 10 years of marriage, TMZ previously reported.
In the livestream, Bailee Ann said viewers had no idea what happened between the former couple and suggested more could come out later. TMZ reported that she told people to wait until they found out, while making clear she was angry about the chatter.
Bailee Ann also defended her father directly, warning people not to attack his name, according to TMZ. She rejected claims that cheating caused the split and indicated she knew the real reason for the breakup, though she did not spell it out in the livestream.
The teenager also told people to stop bringing the divorce into her direct messages, comments and live videos, TMZ reported. Her message was plain: she does not want to be questioned online about her father’s relationship.
The cheating rumors have already been denied by both sides, according to TMZ. The outlet reported that Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO have said they remain on good terms as friends after the divorce.
Bailee Ann’s latest TikTok remarks follow another public response in June. At that time, TMZ reported, she criticized people for prying into what she described as a private family matter and called the public fixation on the breakup disgusting.
Her comments come during a stretch of attention around Bunnie XO’s post-divorce life. TMZ has also reported on Bunnie saying she is single, discussing cosmetic surgery and weight loss, and showing a new home after the divorce settlement.
Jelly Roll, whose legal name is Jason DeFord, has not been reported by TMZ as giving a new explanation for the divorce in connection with Bailee Ann’s TikTok Live. Bunnie XO also has not been reported by TMZ as responding to Bailee Ann’s latest comments.
For now, Bailee Ann has drawn a firm line: the public version circulating online is, in her telling, missing key facts. She has not provided those details, and the former couple’s own public position, as reported by TMZ, remains that cheating was not the cause and that they are still friendly.
